Turner

Every year in the month of January the National art gallery opens its doors to display its Turner water colours,(click here)
They are shown only for this month because the light is at its lowest strength at this time.
The collection of paintings are rotated betwen Dublin and London.

In many of the paintings thre are really vivid skys.
If you are old enough to remember the time Mount StHelens blew her top, the volcanic ash went right around the world and we had amazing sunsets.
It is no coincidence that another volcano blew its top back then Krakatoa blew  her top..

Taxi drivers should know things like this, also that art galleries and the like are closed on Mondays
